HEY!!!!! All I did was dye my pond to kill some algae. I am testing a
product
for you
people! Kathy brought vaseline'ing a horse bottom parts! It's her fault
not
mine!

That's right... by the way, how is the pond?
(Next time coat your hands and arms in vaseline, it will keep yourself
from
turning blue ;-)

The pond is clearing but still greenish/blue from the dye. I plan to do a
water change this week. If I'd just listen to my own mantra of beer and
patience, I'd be over this.

Algae water + new water = more algae water

Mine went so green, I could not see my 20" koi 3" below the surface. as
the WH and other plants are getting more established the water is
getting clearer. It has cleared enough over the last week to be able to
start seeing the green/blue sewer pipe Koi refuge that is 8" under the
surface

"A broken penis in bulls is not very common but does occur. It usually
occus when the bull is thrusting forward during ejaculation and the penis
is bent sharply resulting in rupture of the corpus carvernosum penis. It
may occur when a small bull is trying to service a bigger female, but more
commonly it occurs when another bull rams or butts a bull that is mating a
cow."

Gosh I an not sure how you got on this topic and do not really want to
know. But FWIW back in the 70's my dad purchased a prize bull who ended
up with a broken pennis. That ended his career and his life. Hamburger.

Man, talk about adding insult to injury. You lose your member, and then get
ground up.

Do I even want to know how it breaks?

Well picture how any males would "break" and you got your answer! ;o)

Well curosity got the better of me, so I asked Dr. Rasby from University of
Nebraska, Lincoln, and this is what he said.

Okay, all you guys, cross your legs. It can happen to human men also.
I was read a medical journal article (complete with pictures of the
broken body part) of this happening to a man. Men are not made to play
*with* hot tubs.

The Great Dye Experiment
 

"Benign Vanilla" :

So I was at Big Orange this weekend, and wandered down the pond aisle. They
had these blue dye tablets that contain "enzymes" to eat the muck at the
bottom of the pond. The idea here being, tint the water and your algae will
die. I have about 3000 gallons, so I bought enough for about 1200 gallons.

Results...

....either I have less water or these things really work...my water is very
disturbingly blue.
....the algae seem to be affected as just after a day and the water is
tinted
but clearer
....the tables stain your skin
....the fish, frogs, etc do not seem bothered by the dye at all
....not sure I would ever do this again.

Question? Is there any reason that you can't get the same affect floating
large foam pads on the water to block the light? Maybe paint/shape them to
look like leaves. Or does that block too much air from the water?

I guess you could. I dunno. This dye thing was purely an experiment. LOL.
BTW, I changed out about 2 inches of water this past weekend. The water is
still very dyed green. *sigh*

Don't encourage him.
Or conversely, don't make it that easy.
Shade for the pond should come in the form of an elaborately designed and
constructed gazebo of cedar and redwood with tile inlays imported from Italy.
